A Living Organization Changes With Time Some Parts Of It May Remain Identical To That Which Was First Constructed Most Parts - 1,785 words
A living organization changes with time. Some
parts of it may remain identical to that which was
first constructed. Most parts will adapt to
changes in the world, in society, and in mankind
itself. If it does not change, it withers and
dies. Organizations which fail to adapt to
changes, whether they like it or not, tend to
become shrunken relics of their original selves.
They become mummified images of a once living
creation. Such an organization is the Ku Klux
Klan, better known as the KKK. The Ku Klux Klan is
one of the most hateful groups that still exists
today. They are not as strong as they once were,
but still pose a threat. I believe that the KKK
should have never been formed because ...

How To Produce A High School Newspaper - 1,694 words

nervously in front of the classroom while my hands

the chosen students who were going to depend on
me, their editor-in-chief, for guidance and
assistance. All of a sudden, a piercing ringing of
the bell indicated that it was time for me to

hundreds of questions raced through my mind: What

In his novel, Lord of the Flies, William Golding
uses the character of Piggy to represent knowledge
and order. Piggy is a short, overweight boy who
wears glasses. He is afflicted with asthma and
doesn't care to do strenuous work on the island.
He tries very hard to cling to civilization, and
tries his best to keep peace. While probably the
smartest boy on the island, he lacks any social
skills whatsoever, and has trouble communicating
or fitting in with the others. For instance, after
Piggy and Ralph converse for a short while and
Piggy recognizes Ralph's leadership qualities,
Piggy promptly urged, " We can use this (conch) to
call the others. Have a meeting. They'll come when
they hear us-- ...

American history known as the Reconstruction

upper-middle class, while the KKK and Knights of
Labor, another racist group, attracted the working
